Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
It happens on Feisty server with latest security updates.
I'm using POSIX acl's to force some groups permissions. On server filesystem everything works fine. I share this folder with Samba.
Problem occures when I mount this folder from the client as 'cifs' filesystem. New files created by the client are becoming automatically executable (they shouldn't).
There is a patch in the Samba mailinglist:

I have rebuilt ubuntu samba deb with this patch applied - PROBLEM SOLVED.
This fix is important because I couldn't find any other way to use ACL on network filesystem in Ubuntu. NFS ACLs are disabled in default Feisty kernel.
Thanks for the report!
Has this patch been taken by upstream? (If not, why?) Note the "corrected" patch is here:
